Editors' Review

Everything old is new again in BrickBuster, a fairly straightforward take on the classic Breakout/Pong/Arkanoid paradigm. The small file size is probably the only notable facet of the game. Otherwise, it's just what you'd expect: bounce one or more balls off your paddle to break a wall of bricks overhead. The paddle seems small, but fireballs and splitting balls can help you win, as can the easier Child mode. No other special features or enhancements make an appearance here. The full version does contain a level editor, but the demo version won't let you access it. Even the graphics are true to the decades-old aesthetic of the original. Fans of vintage games might find it worth a download, but BrickBuster won't win any awards for originality.
